Create: Rainbow Compound
by LunaGlaze
Create: Rainbow Compound adds a more complex synthesis route for the Create compound and a more advanced compound, along with tools, armor and foods built from it.
What it does
The mod restores a more involved synthesis route for a compound used in Create, so that the compound and its related materials can be obtained in game versions from 1.18.2 upward. The recipe is more involved than the one used before Create v0.4, and the author states that the balance is kept intact. Content added is limited, and no recipes are included that can only be obtained in creative mode.
The additions cover Shadow Steel tools, Obsidianite with its tools and armor, and Rainbow Compound with matching tools and armor. Enchanted golden apples can be made using a Nether Star and a quantity of the compound. The mod also includes scythes with a longer reach and a linkage with a food mod that adds four knives and five foods. Create: Rainbow Compound requires Create, Caelus API, Curios API and Elytra Slot. It is for Forge and NeoForge, the environment is client and server, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Files exist for 1.18.2 – 1.21.11.

What the author says
Added a new and more complicated way to synthesize Chromatic in Create. And added another more advanced Compound. Now you can get Chromatic Compound, Refined Radiance an Shadow Steel in the 1.18.2 or higher game. Recipe is more complex than that before Createv0.4, but it won't break the balance too much.
